AbstractIntelligent process automation represents a significant leap forward in the integration of artificial intelligence and robotic process automation to streamline and enhance various business operations. As industries strive to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and stay competitive, the adoption of IPA has gained considerable momentum. This chapter explores the transformative potential, current applications, and future trends and innovations of IPA. The primary objective is to provide a comprehensive analysis of how IPA is being utilized across diverse industries, including finance, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, telecommunications, and insurance. It addresses key questions regarding the components and technologies underpinning IPA, its benefits and challenges, and future research opportunities. A multi-method approach was employed, including a thorough review of existing literature and interviews with industry experts. The chapter is structured to provide an in-depth overview of IPA, followed by detailed examinations of its applications across various industries. Benefits such as increased efficiency, cost reduction, and improved accuracy are discussed alongside challenges like system integration and data security. Future trends and innovations in IPA are highlighted, and real-world case studies provide practical insights. The chapter concludes with strategic recommendations and a summary of key findings, aiming to guide further research and development in the field of IPA.
